Having freed the line of figurative representation, I liberated the line of thought.​Inspired by Hemingway's novel, 'The Old man and the Sea', but most of all by a lifelong love for the ocean. The simplicity of the drawing resembles the seeming 'nothingness' of the surface of the sea. It is a memory of an ocean, a calming and meditative piece, in which every ripple gets the attention it deserves, translated in tiny lines, some erased, others sharp and clear, each drawn with care and attention. And staring into that endless ocean, sometimes, if you look long enough, you see it. And that's when the magic happens. ​
